RAM | Random Access Memory |
reclaim | The act of making empty tape virtual volumes available for reuse. Reclaimed |
| tape virtual volumes are assigned a new Virtual Volume ID, but retain the rest |
| of their previous characteristics. |
registration | The process by which SSM requests notification of changes to specified |
| attributes of a managed object. |
reinitialization | An HPSS SSM administrative operation that directs an HPSS server to reread |
| its latest configuration information, and to change its operating parameters to |
| match that configuration, without going through a server shutdown and restart. |
repack | The act of moving data from a virtual volume onto another virtual volume |
| with the same characteristics with the intention of removing all data from the |
| source virtual volume. |
request | A log record message type used to log some action being performed by an |
| HPSS server on behalf of a client. |
RISC | Reduced Instruction Set Computer/Cycles |
RMS | Removable Media Service |
RPC | Remote Procedure Call |
SCSI | Small Computer Systems Interface |
security | A log record message type used to log security related events (e.g., |
| authorization failures). |
SGI | Silicon Graphics |
shelf tape | A cartridge which has been physically removed from a tape library but whose |
| file metadata still resides in HPSS. |
shutdown | An HPSS SSM administrative operation that causes a server to stop its |
| execution gracefully. |
sink | The set of destinations to which data is sent during a data transfer (e.g., disk |
| devices, memory buffers, network addresses). |
SMC | SCSI Medium Changer |
SMIT | System Management Interface Tool |
SNL | Sandia National Laboratories |
SOID | Storage Object ID. An internal HPSS storage object identifier that uniquely |
| identifies a storage resource. The SOID contains an unique identifier for the |
| object, and an unique identifier for the server that manages the object. |
source | The set of origins from which data is received during a data transfer (e.g., disk |
| devices, memory buffers, network addresses). |
SP | Scalable Processor |
